Russian made an appeal. Reveals what is happening in the unit
26-year-old contract soldier Alexei Nazarov, currently stationed in the 108th Russian Guards Air Assault Regiment, unit 42091 in Novorossiysk, has contacted the public for help.
Nazarov was previously wounded and is disabled. He was assigned category B (temporarily unfit for military service). He claims he is unfit for armed service and can only serve in the rear. Despite this, they want to send him to the front again.
Many wounded Russians
"Please, help me." No treatment has been provided to me. I was evacuated from Ukraine. They want to send me to the "special war operation" zone on Friday," says the Russian soldier.
Moreover, the soldier said that many soldiers in the unit need medical care, and some even surgeries, but complaints made to the command on this matter are ignored. Additionally, leaving the unit is banned.
